Understanding the Point System in Washington, D.C.
While you can receive a traffic ticket for any number of moving and non-moving violations, two are the most common in the D.C. area. Speeding and reckless driving tickets are common, and both can come with stiff penalties. Washington, D.C. traffic laws are clear on speeding and reckless driving penalties.
Potential Penalties for Speeding Violations
- 1-10 miles over the speed limit = a $75.00 fine and two points
- 11-15 miles over the speed limit = $125.00 and three points
- 16-20 miles over the speed limit = $150.00 and four points
- 21 or more miles over the speed limit = $200.00 and five points
Potential Penalties for Reckless Driving Violations
- Fines up to $1,000.00 and loss of driving privileges
- Several points on your driving record
- Higher insurance premiums
- Possible jail time
You are legally allowed to have up to 12 points on your driving record, but anything over results in an automatic suspension of your driving privileges. You should also expect to see your insurance rates increase. Your auto insurance carrier may even decide to cancel your policy. Before letting this happen, contact Morgan & Morgan. We have over 35 years of experience fighting for our client’s legal rights.
